Have you been affected by Kelsey-Seybold Clinic's data breach?

Kelsey-Seybold Medical Group, LLC (“Kelsey-Seybold Clinic”) has disclosed a data breach affecting sensitive consumer information. The clinic filed a notice with the Attorney General of Texas on February 14, 2025, after discovering an unauthorized access to confidential data in their possession. While details remain limited, the incident may have exposed names, addresses, Social Security numbers, medical records, health insurance details, and dates of birth of affected individuals.

Impacted individuals are urged to remain vigilant by monitoring financial statements, updating passwords, and staying alert to phishing attempts. For more information, visit our guide on how to protect your information after a data breach and minimize potential harm.

Kelsey-Seybold Clinic Data Breach Details

At this stage, Kelsey-Seybold Clinic has not publicly released a statement or posted information about the breach on their website, making the Texas Attorney General’s filing the only official source of information. It remains unclear whether the breach originated within Kelsey-Seybold Clinic’s systems or if it was the result of an attack on a third-party vendor or partner.

According to the available details, an unauthorized party gained access to confidential patient data, prompting an internal review to assess the extent of the exposure. Kelsey-Seybold Clinic has not yet confirmed the number of individuals affected or provided insight into the nature of the security vulnerability that led to the breach.

Potential Impact and Response

With Social Security numbers, medical records, and other personal details potentially compromised, affected individuals could face risks such as identity theft and fraud. Kelsey-Seybold Clinic has not yet announced whether they will offer credit monitoring or other protective measures to those impacted. Given the absence of a formal public statement, it is expected that further information will emerge as the investigation progresses.

How to Know if You Were Affected

If you received a data breach notification from Kelsey-Seybold Clinic, your personal information may have been compromised. While most victims are officially notified through a “Notice of Data Breach” in the mail, the consequences—such as fraudulent transactions and identity theft—can begin long before the notice arrives.

Steps to Take If You Were Affected by Kelsey-Seybold Clinic Data Breach

Stay Alert for Phishing Scams
Scammers may exploit the data breach by posing as Kelsey-Seybold Clinic. Be cautious of unexpected emails, texts, or calls requesting personal information. When in doubt, verify communications directly with the company through official channels.

Monitor Your Credit and Financial Accounts
Regularly check your bank statements, credit card activity, and credit reports for unauthorized transactions. Set up account alerts to detect suspicious activity early. Take advantage of free credit reports and review them carefully for unfamiliar accounts or discrepancies.

Consider Freezing Your Credit
For added security, request a credit freeze from all three major credit bureaus. This prevents new accounts from being opened in your name while still allowing you to use existing credit. You can temporarily lift the freeze when necessary if applying for credit.
